Description
Compact Dry Swab, sterile, for microbiology, Density (D) 1 g/cm³, Storage temp. +15 to +25 °C
Sterile all-in-one system for sampling in the microbiological field of work. Suitable for analysis of foods and feeds, in pharmaceutical areas, as well as for hygiene monitoring, and for exclusion of contaminations.
Compact Dry Swabs made by NISSUI are particularly easy to apply, and may also be used by laymen. In order to test a surface, the respective area is wiped with the sterile cotton swab. After returning the swab into the tube, the germs are released into the nutrient broth by agitation. The amount of 1 ml medium has been optimised for inoculation of nutrient agar plates in general, also making this swab most compatible with Compact Dry plates.
Compact Dry Swabs are particularly suitable for sampling at difficult-to-access areas or when working on site. The sample taken may be transported inside the swab. Storage at room temperature as well as easy application makes them a very versatile tool in microbiology.

Questions about Compact Dry Swab, sterile, for microbiology, 50 unit(s), box
What is this article?
Compact Dry Swab, sterile, for microbiology, 50 unit(s), box is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Shimadzu Diagnostics for laboratory use. It sits in Ready-to-use culture media (plates, tubes, bottles), inside Culture media & microbiology, in Microbiologie.
A ready-to-use plate, tube or bottle is the medium already prepared and sterile. It saves the autoclave and it expires. The fill volume, the supplements and the storage temperature are the specification. A plate that has dried out or grown a colony of its own is finished.
A culture medium is the food and the solid or liquid home of a microorganism. Dehydrated media are powders the laboratory dissolves and sterilises. Ready-to-use plates and tubes are already that. A Petri dish is the plate. Selective media let one kind of organism grow and hold another back. The formulation and the supplements, not the colour of the agar, are the specification. Reference strains are at ATCC. Methods are on PubMed. Biosafety practice is the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
